Assessment criteria

Reproduced verbatim from the Pearson specification — the same grid the assignment brief carries. A unit grade is the highest band where all criteria in that band (and every band below it) are met.

Pass

6 criteria
A.P1Describe the purpose of different types of drawings required at various stages of the construction process.
A.P2Interpret information communicated through different types of drawings.
A.P3Describe the appropriate selection and use of equipment and materials needed to produce construction drawings manually.
A.P4Describe the features of a computer-aided-design system.
B.P5Describe drawing conventions and standards used in the construction industry.
B.P6Apply drawing standards and conventions to produce construction drawings to meet a given brief, drawn to appropriate scales.

Merit

2 criteria
A.M1Explain the production of drawings and the equipment/media used to produce them
B.M2Produce construction drawings to meet a given brief that are:

Distinction

2 criteria
A.D1Evaluate the production of drawings using computer aided design and traditional drafting techniques.
B.D1Evaluate construction drawings produced to meet a given brief in terms of compliance with current national / international Standards.

Command verbs in this unit

The verb decides the depth expected — that is what separates Pass from Merit and Distinction work on the same learning aim.

DescribeInterpretApplyExplainProduceEvaluate
Pearson's ladder runs Identify → Describe → Explain → Compare / Analyse → Evaluate / Justify / Assess. A Merit or Distinction criterion on the same aim always implies the Pass beneath it: an “evaluate” answer that never first “explains” fails, however polished it reads. Hover a verb for what it demands.

Learning aims

  • A. understand the requirements to produce construction drawings
  • B. Explore the production of construction drawings

How checkb.tech checks this unit

Upload a learner's submission and checkb.tech reads it against exactly these criteria, reporting each one as met, partly met, or not met — with the evidence that informed the verdict cited, so every call is auditable.

The check runs against the official Pearson documents for this unit, and identical evidence always produces an identical result — the same script gets the same verdict every time.

It never awards a grade. You stay the assessor: confirm, dismiss, or act on every criterion before your assessment decision is final.
